Apologies if this has been answered, but my introduction to MST3K was season 8 on the UK sci-fi channel via my besties cable package. I downloaded the Gizmoplex app which is fantastic but some of 8, 9 and 10 are not viewable to me (including my absolute favourites from 8 like Agent for HARM and Riding with Death). Is it because I am in the UK or is it the same for everyone?

I think there are still rights issues with some stuff, they don’t have Final Sacrifice either.

At least Red Zone Cuba, Mitchell, Overdrawn at the Memory Bank and Eegah are viewable!

One thing I really appreciate about the second season episodes that sort of faded over the third season is that there's a bit more of a conversational quality to the riffing. It's what I love about the Bridget/Mary Jo rifftrax. Also I haven't watched Catalina Caper in years and it's way funnier than my recollection. Edit: and having just rewatched Village of the Giants, Tommy Kirk is a charisma vacuum huh Clouseau fucked around with this message at 17:27 on Nov 24, 2022 |

I’m just now realizing how weird it was that the original show got so many letters from little kids. I’d imagine that part of why they always featured them was that they appreciated how strange it was to get them.

That couple who sent Joel and the Bots a wedding invite would likely have been married for over 30 years by now.

Wasn't it common though on the local TV stations to do things like that, as for phone ins and mail to read out for free content basically. Love Horror at Party Beach. Was my first MST3K ever saw. Love you Romulan Girl.

I like Synthia's nail polish she's got on today. Looks good. Edit: Also I think Dracula is hot in this movie and I don't care who knows. Julet Esqu fucked around with this message at 21:30 on Nov 24, 2022 |

Come to think of it Emily got the roughest first movie of any host. Joel had The Crawling Eye which I will argue is not that bad Mike was Brain That Wouldn’t Die which is that bad but is also goofy enough to not be tedious Jonah got Reptilicus which is a silly giant monster movie Beyond Atlantis is *something*

^^ Watching Robot Wars with its intense 90s-ness and the 90s segment they did for it made me think about how the show is finally being pitched explicitly by people my age now, whereas when I was watching Rhino VHSes of Catalina Caper as a kid and Joel was doing a monologue about the sixties a ton of it just flew right over my head. Maxwell Lord posted:Come to think of it Emily got the roughest first movie of any host. Jonah got the best set up first episode - Reptilicus is such a nice straightforward layup of a movie. Not his best episode or the best movie he got, but as both an intro to a new host and a full set up for a show relaunch its a nice comfy movie. And oof Beyond Atlantis.

Joel's first movie was actually two episodes of an old Gerry and Sylvia Anderson show strung together so it was actually even easier than The Crawling Eye. This would be true even if they'd riffed all of The Green Slime, because that film is just 90 minutes of bonkers Japanese monster havoc. It's insane but never boring. The 7th Guest posted:it's not great that the only memorable characters in the film are complete shitheads It's weird when you have a cast that includes an expat pimp/crime lord played by Sid Haig and he's one of the more respectable characters.
